Avantages
ToolsGroup used to be a great place to work, but now there are very few pros, other than you can bond over shared trauma. If I had to list some pros, you can be completely ignored by leaders who are always so busy. I don't know what they are busy with since there are no sales and no prospects. Employees are good as long as managers aren't around to kill joy and bully them into silence. I guess working here is liberatingly hopeless as you don't have to worry about promotions (there are none) or making the software work (it doesn't).
Inconvénients
Even changing the entire C-Suite didn't help. It's still awful even after former CEO's reign of terror, where discrimination ran rampant unless you were her pet. Even customers used to laugh at how awful she was. Absolutely clueless management with no supply chain experience at all. It's like ToolsGroup doesn't want to admit it's a supply chain management tool because they have no idea what customers want, need, or do. Maybe it's easier this way than actually trying to make the software better like what the competition is doing. The management does excel in bullying. Hey, at least when you bully employees into silence, you don't have to address or fix issues. Discrimination was a problem, Can't sell the software but could be a pro because it doesn't always work. Sales are so abysmal. Seriously, is there anything on LinkedIn ever about a new customer? Town halls are a joke because the leaders try to congratulate themselves on accomplishments but that can just be that flew around the world and had dinner with themselves. That's literally their only positives to report.
